Abstract
Research findings show there is limited opportunity for female students to interact, exchange experiences and as well, learn from women leaders in the country. Mentors and mentees met twice a month for a period of three months, in discussions, job shadowing and as partners in leadership in action. UPEACE Africa Programme monitored the process. Training helped students identify their personal vision, mission, and values. The program inspired enthusiasm, belief, commitment and excitement in leadership and the values of leading. An appendix of student thesis assessments is included.
